Sometimes medication is nice, sometimes it prolongs the sickness.

Hmmmmm.... I was partial to Star Trek over Star Wars, and I would say that Trek had more appeal due to the elaborate world that it constructed, which had greater plausibility than Star Wars. Lucas wanted to give Star Wars a more fleshed out and jargon laced lore-filled background, but his ideas (see the Whills, for example) were not exactly embraced as a whole by the fans. Star Trek's utopian vision of the future, while interesting to see, lost a bit of its plausibility as I got older and realized we were likely headed for the mirror universe outcome over the main line. Though, as with any attempt to try and predict the future, it is possible that this is not a correct interpretation of reality.

i liked that starwars didn't have transporter beams and aliens actually spoke alien languages and looked alien

Lots of themes to be explored in Trek as well, Star Wars did not tend to have the ability to look at nearly as many. Then again, Star Wars was more imaginative in some ways. Maybe it would vary with my personality type.

i had a lot of hope for enterprise

with the promise of no transporter beams and aliens that didn't speak english

but that lasted maybe three episodes

don't get me wrong

love tng and ds9 to death

and all of the new starwars stuff is trash

even and/or

Interesting. It has been a while, but I usually test as 5 w 4 or 5 w 6. More frequently is it 5 w 4. Ever been on the lower ends of health, according to how that is described by the system?

It certainly can be counter to one's interests to use them sometimes.

What I like about science fiction are the extraordinary situations it takes up in an exemplary way and the reactions of the protagonists. SF fires the imagination, it also contains ordinary soap opera elements that unfold within the framework of a fictional technology. The ‘what if’ scenarios are a nice mental exercise for real experiences in everyday life.
